That Whistle, “What whistle is that?” was the query from many lips yesterday af ternoon, as the ears of the people caught the sound of a strange engine whistle. The employes, however, of the E. T. V.

The Satilla river country and Camden county are essentially trib utary to Brutuwlok, and our people should know and be kpown to every man living within | the - territory reached by the river, and yet, though the steamer Cracker Boy makes semi weekly trips “up the Satilla’’ river, very little or nothing is known ofithe river or the country by a great num ber of our people. This scribe was last week of that class, but “be went, he saw, and-came back” on Monday’s trip of the Cracker Boy, and -bo now writes a few scattering recolleetions for the benefit of those who know less about it than ho does, all others be ing respectfully requested to refrain from reading further. THE SATILLA ; Empties into St Andrews Sound and through that noble and some times tempestuous body of water we go, turning to the right when almost to Cumberland High Point and entering the river at the south western corner of the Sound. The first landings arc the mills of tho Hilton Timber and Lumber Com pany at sAtillaJbluff. These are two separate and dis tinct mills, about three miles apart, operated by this Company, and each capable of cutting from 25,000 to 30,000 feet per day. These mills are under the personal supervision of Mr. J. A. Foster, a member of the >wn in. the isq m ing shekels for which all men do strive. This is quite an important adding, and is the gate of ingress and egress for a large scope of coun try, including the village of Tarboro and'several turpentine stills and log ging camps. Right hero begins the rice field of .Col. Geo. S. Owens, of Savannah, un der the management of Mr. E. M. Ba- ley. This is the largest field on the riv$r, and stretches but 'over two miles along the strewn. bailey’s MILL lathe next stop, the property of Mr. J. 8. Bailey. This is known to be one of the best and “smartest” mills in tho country. Everything pertain ing. to its equipment is of . the best construction and most convenient arrangement A new labor-saving device - lately- put in is a^ monster blower" which takes every shaving from the plauing mill and blows it inti) the slab-pit, fifty yards away. Tho proprietor,is now In Now York, and tho Alii is under the charge of Mr. James Dunwody, a brother of Dr. J. A. and Messrs. Harry and Monfoe Dunwddy. A large rlco field also adjoins thB mill. Beyond Bailey’s Mill only two landings are made, Mumford’slsland and Bull Head Bluff, about five miles further. ■ ' .. BULL HkAD BLUFF ' Is now practically nothing, although a still or two and perhaps a Btorei get their supplies from here. Messrs. Fleming A Cay originally had a satr mill located here, and the old mill shed, residence and store still stand. “Push.” The Atlanta Constitution’s repre Boutntivc hero last Friday has this to say of our townsman and his work on St Simons: It is almost increditible that four months ago the spot where the new and beautiful hotel now stands was a stretch of sand and bushes. The building is rapidly nearing comple tion and will be, when finished, a very elegaut hostelry. It will open June 5th, under the management of Major Warren, of Atlanta. A large force is now employed finishing up the building and tho opening will take place ns announced. 8t Si mons, hotel is a monument to the push and enterprise of Mr. Kay, who by the by, is an Atlanta boy. It was deemed impossible to build,, furnish and equip a perfect hotel, with twen ty cottages iu 100 days, but Sir. Kay said it could be done, and ho hers de monstrated the possibility. man with but few peers and no supe riors. These mills give employment to many hands, and as a matter of course, two thriving little villages have sprung up around them. To keep them in communication with the outside world is a part of the work of the . Cracker Boy. Be tween the two mills is one continu ous steep bluff, prjbably thirty feet high (from which tho place gets its name.) At the lower mills this bluff is particularly striking, and among the oaks which crown its summit is nestled tho village, the residences of Mr. Foster and Major Dnve Bailey occupying tho most prominent positions. At these landings several faces fa miliar in Brunswick were seen, among them Mr. Foster, Capt. Tom Scott, Major Duncan Clinch, Jr., and Mr. George Bean. Five miles further up the river the Cracker Boy halts at WOODBINE, the residence and plantation of Mr. J. K. Bedell—a pretty spot, with a high bluff, while to the.right stretch away his rice fields. On the opposite side o&fhe river is the first field of Col. D. L/Clincb, while his second and larg er field follows next and covers hour ly tho whole distance to jeffersonton. This place was once the county Bite of Camden, being a village of some importance, supporting seven fiunily.

At this point the Cracker Boy discontinues her voyage, but It is.by no means the end of the river nor the head of navigation. The Satilla is a bold and deep strum, navigable for steamers for more than a hun dred miles from its mouth. Vessels can load at Bailey’s Mills to a depth of sixteen feet, and go to sea with ease. We have upon pur note book a number of items, of varied length, breadth and importance, picked up on out way, but will defer them un til to-morrow, after a profound bow to Captain Clubb, Parser White and Engineer Murray—three of the best offleers in their respective spheres that sail our waters—for.countless courtesies extended. v Uand^mo Cross Ties.
